At first glance, the organisms may hold the appearance of protozoans like ciliates. However, I am of the belief that these 'totally tubular' micro organisms are in fact diatoms.
The diatoms are a diverse range of eucaryotic microalgae which comprise a large percentage of the phytoplankton group. (Diatomaceous earth is the residual remains of their calcareous walls)
They are likely diatoms because of their apparent hard membrane, and slight brown-green pigment, typical of heterokont diatoms.
I would be unable to specify the organism to family level. However, you may wish to complete your investigation by looking under the order 'Pennales'.
